Gay Thailand

I want to go for a ride on the wild side and try sidegra or tadalafil. I don't know why, but I feel embarrassed about approaching a female pharmacist. Anyway, I went to Siam pharmacy, but the lady didn't understand when I said tadalafil, as I wanted the generic version. So I mentioned Cialis and she told me that it would be over 1000 baht, so I left empty-handed. So, my request is could someone please recommend a good pharmacy and how much I should expect to pay for a pack of 4. Maybe I could use a Thai translator app. I was thinking of the cluster of pharmacies along Rama 4 road, up the top of Soi Surawong, in particular Chuya MD, where you have to get a…

From LA Times By Stephanie Yang BANGKOK, Thailand — In 2019, business was booming for Owen Zhu. He was one year into his new career in real estate, showing Bangkok properties to Chinese investors. Then the pandemic halted travel and spending. Even now, Chinese buyers are slow to return. The exception has been one group that has since become Zhu’s specialty: LGBTQ+ clients looking to build a new life for themselves outside China. “Most of them are buying to live in or to retire in — not like many straight people or friends, who are prioritizing investments,” Zhu, 40, said. Before the pandemic, Zhu estimates, about one-fourth of his clie…

From Bangkok Post The Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau (TCEB) organised the event "Thailand Announcement -- Unity in Action: Thailand's Next Steps in Equality" on Tuesday to celebrate the landmark passage of the Marriage Equality Bill, while also reaffirming the government's dedication to advancing gender equality in the country. Former prime minister Srettha Thavisin delivered a keynote speech titled "Towards Equality and Unity: Announcing Thailand's Advancements in Marriage Equality Legislation and Readiness to Host WorldPride," where he said the government aims to promote gender equality in the long term, ensuring an inclusive society for Thai LGBTQ+…

On YouTube I saw a video showing Pattaya in 1979. Walking street was a gravel road and it looked to have mostly normal shops in stead of bars to get ladies for sex This made me wondering : 1) Since when became massage places with happy ending a thing in Pattaya? 2) Since when are they all over the place? I mean they are really everywhere now. I assume it started with 1 or 2 such shops and then a few years later it’s everywhere. 3) Since when are there massage places with guys doing the massage and providing happy ending? 4) When did gay beer bars and go go bars first appear ? Already in the 70s? Or gay sex tourism started only late 80s or so …

From The BBC An ultra-wholesome Japanese dating series on Netflix has hooked viewers globally. It's part of a wave of reality shows showing the nuances, and differences, of gay relationships. It is a concept that we've seen many times before: a group of strangers enter a house and, as cameras film their every move, they search for a romantic connection. But conceptually, Netflix's The Boyfriend is actually a million miles from the Love Island villa, where singles with chiselled abs search for love (and Instagram fame). The Netflix series is Japan's first ever same-sex dating show – a landmark moment for LGBTQ+ representation. The premise …

Anyone following Olympic Games currently? I was absolutely enthralled by diving competition yesterday. It was the men's 3-metre synchronised event. I am infatuated with the divers from China - Long Daoyi and Wang Zangyuan. Unfortunate name which is reflected in scoring as LONG.D. They have such fabulous bodies and those abs are so yummy! And their armpit hair is so manly! The Chinese men's pair nearly lost the gold medal because of one poor dive. When they finally won (because the Mexicans couldn't match their score), Wang was overcome by emotion and cried. Long hugged him comfortingly. How I want to experience that moment and wearing skimpy trunks! …

I have had this fantasy of trying to hook up with guys who are not money boys but willing to gay4pay on apps like Instagram, etc I probably won't do it because I'm lazy and have no patience and not much idea of technology and lose interest But I fantasize when I go onto Instagram or tiktok and I see sexy young Asian guys (18 to 50) from Thailand or Philippines and I feel like I want to contact them to see if they are Gay4Pay I like the University students There is one Thai guy 34yo who is very very sexy who always talks how is broke but he is married Obviously prices are going to be higher than a normal money boy rates I mean they can o…

From Bangkok Post 48-year-old transexual was arrested on Saturday night for allegedly swindling a Japanese man, the latest in a decade of similar offences against mostly Japanese men, adding up to about 26 million baht. According to police sources, the arrest of Uthai Nanthakhan aka Amy followed a fraud complaint from a Japanese man aged 36. He filed the complaint at the Thong Lor police station. The victim said he got to know Uthai in January. At that time the suspect told him she was a visitor from Hong Kong. After meeting several times, she duped him into making payments for her. Police said the suspect usually told victims, mostly Japanese men, tha…

The most important part of my next trip is to work out when I will be horny. That actually is the most important part of my trip 😉 Frustratingly my last trip I was "horny" only about 60% of the time I remember there was one week without taking any guy from a bar or apps😯 Then the following week on my trip I would take 3 guys in one day when I became "horny " and in the mood ☺️ I'm going for 10-12 days my next trip in October, I'm hoping when I arrive I'm in the mood ,I can't be everyday , I don't know why ,that's despite being a non drinker non smoker . I do feel guilty if I'm going on a short trip not to take a boy everyday like I used to…

From The Thaiger The Move Forward Party (MFP) is advocating for a significant change to Thailand’s Criminal Code to legalise the adult entertainment industry, including pornographic materials and sex toys. This initiative aims to dismantle the existing taboos and establish better regulation. MFP MP for Bangkok, Taopiphop Limjittrakorn, submitted the proposal to Parliament last week, with discussions expected to commence within the next couple of weeks. Currently, Section 287 of the Criminal Code prohibits all forms of adult materials, including pornographic images and sex toys. The proposed amendment would still ban certain types of pornography, particularl…

I have a 7 day break from work next month Im thinking taking a break ,fly from Sydney to Bangkok Im not strapped for cash but I don't like to waste it either Do any of you ever fly to BKK for 7 days/nights? Is that sound ridiculous?

From Bangkok Post The Bangkok Pride association has been awarded by France for championing LGBTQ rights in Thailand. The city of Paris chose "Bangkok Pride", which organises the annual Pride March in Thailand, to be awarded the International Prize of the City of Paris under the "Prix International" category for its advocacy. An award ceremony for association members took place on Monday at the French embassy residence in Bangkok. Jean-Luc Romero-Michel, the deputy mayor of Paris, presented the prize to leaders of the association in the presence of Remi Lambert, Chargé d’affaires of the French Embassy in Thailand. He said during the ceremony that t…

He was, of course, shocked...shocked. It was apparently well concealed secret. From The Thaiger The Minister of Public Health (MOPH) plans to clean up traditional Thai massage shops after 75% were found to secretly offer sex services. The Health Minister, Somsak Thepsutin, stated he aims to clean up the seedy side of the industry and promote Thai massage as a soft power. The President of the Charawi Association for the Preservation of Thai Massage, Phithak Yotha, urged the MOPH to investigate foreigners working illegally in Thailand’s wellness industry. He also requested the ministry simplify massage therapist registration and encourage Thai massage as a s…

I am traveling to Bangkok next week and will be there for approximately three weeks. This is not my first trip to Thailand, but will be my first solo adventure. Previous trips have been with straight friends, so I had no chance to experience gay life in Thailand. Since I will be traveling alone, I will have the opportunity to explore more than on my previous trips. I am not new to hiring, but have always preferred to use sites such as RM and Masseurfinder. I have never visited a massage parlor and am very curious to give it a try on this trip. I would be looking for something more full service. My fantasy would be an experience similar to some of the Japanese massa…

Cant seem to find a thread on the gay places in chang mai. Anyone can recommend any bars sauna or gay massage places there?

My time in Thailand has been mainly visiting/recreation thus far. Since I plan to retire in Thailand in a few years, I am concerned that I will grow bored after a hectic working life. So was thinking that I may take on additional studies - pursue a doctorate program in Thailand perhaps. Does anyone here have any experience with higher learning institutions in Asia? 1. Is Thailand's universities a good (and relatively cheap) choice? 2. Is it difficult to enroll? 3. Are cute teaching assistants available (just kidding!) I'd appreciate any thoughts you may have!

I’ve been absent from this forum for more than a year, it’s time to return to Thailand - which I will on July 12 before heading to Japan at the end of the month. Looking forward to meeting Forum members and meeting up with friends I’ve made over the past decade.

Twenty plus hours travelling, looking forward to my chicken and cashew nuts at Dick's. And it's closed. Refurbishment or forever?

From Pattaya Mail By Barry Kenyon An interview between the Bangkok Post and a deputy director general of the foreign affairs ministry has clarified some visa ambiguities but left others to immigration discretion. The actual recording is, according to the newspaper, available only by downloading the digital web player Spotify. Naruchai Ninnad, representing the ministry, emphasized that the new policies were designed to increase foreign tourism, in accordance with the prime minister’s desire to benefit the economy. Khun Naruchai clarified that tourists from 93 countries receiving the visa-exempt 60 days on entry could indeed extend for a further 30 days at lo…

From Bangkok Post Immigration police on Thursday launched their "Welcome Pride by Immigration" campaign to allay concerns among the LGBTQIA2S+ travellers who may look different from their passport photographs. Pol Maj Gen Choengron Rimpadee, commander of Immigration Division 2, said that many LGBTQIA2S+ people were worried about immigration checks due to discrepancies between their appearance and the photos or gender markers in their passports, which are often governed by the laws of their home countries. "Some people may have undergone surgeries that altered their facial structures, leading to concerns during immigration checks," said the official w…

I am planning to book Airbnb in December. I have always stayed at hotels but this time decided to stay in Airbnb because of kitchen facilities. My regular Viet guy loves to cook (he watches cooking videos on Tiktok) and I would so love for him to cook for me. I have found two options close to bars at patpong and soi 4 - a walk up apartment in soi 6 and a condo unit in soi 3. Soi 6 walk up apartment is spacious but no pool or gym facilities. It would mean I have to pass by the massage shops in soi 6 every day. I reckon by end of week 1, the massage guys will know where I stay (and probably have gone inside with me!) Soi 3 condo unit is small. Typical one bed…

I hear Gop of Nice Boys has succumbed to an infection (TB?) in a hospital in Suphanburi Friday. The cremation is to be Wednesday. He was the boyfriend of Kong, a waiter there. He cared and lived with him until his passing from TB in 2019 (during CoVid). From the pictures of GOP, it just looked like bad acne and I didn't think it was serious. (And now his friend dumps gambling advertisments above the Facebook announcement- how rude!) https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100067494271039

I'm currently in Pattaya but haven't been frequenting the bars much I'm more into the challenges of finding non bar boys or those not usual money boys if that makes sense. I'm into gay4pay boys , usually straight even better if they are married. I have cards printed with my LINE ID and Thai telephone number I usually give out to handsome guys in shops etc So I haven't had that much luck in Pattaya like I used to , whether because I'm older or because there's less need for guys to be gay4pay nowadays who knows. But I did meet a handsome boy very sexy in the phone shop in central festival recently early 20's uni student Hard trying to tell hi…

I am a mature cis Canadian gay guy who recently moved to Bangkok. I am curious about the gay scene, but a bit shy to venture out alone in Silom reading so many comments about mamasans and MBs who pressure you to drink and spend. I drink alcohol but I am not a big drinker. I am seeking friends over 50 like me to experience the Silom scene, and maybe chill out once in a while (I am not seeking a s*x partner as I like younger guys). I did put a similar post in Facebook and received a lot of nasty comments for being gay, so not trying that again. But I found this forum and hope to have better luck here. I live in central Bangkok.

This subject attracted some interest in a more general discussion of Bangkok. So here goes. What are posters' preferences for breakfast? Room only plus 7 11? or , ahem, a certain place in Patpong? or a lavish spread? I only have daily company when i'm in Thailand and so I particularly enjoy a relaxed breakfast with P. And quickie reviews? Tarntawan's breakfast is always enjoyed, particularly since it changed to a buffet plus cooked options. Agate is fine for P, who always chooses Thai options, and we like eating opposite the waterfall. The most disappointing? Aonang Villas in Krabi, the most expensive hotel we've ever stayed in. Limited and over-priced. Very …
